In honour of a beautiful and peaceful soul, I will run a marathon to, not only raise money towards the research and cure for Amyloidosis, but try and create some awareness too.

We lost Uncle Harold so unexpectedly in July 2016 and it has left a massive crater of a hole in our souls. This money won't fill it, but it will contribute towards finding a cure. Even if it's just a wee bit, it will be sincerely appreciated. We all know that a little goes a long way.

All proceeds will be going to the Royal Free Hospital London for Amyloidosis.

Amyloidosis treatment at the Royal Free: what is amyloidosis?
Amyloidosis is a rare disease caused by abnormal deposition and accumulation of proteins in the tissues of the body. There are many different types of amyloidosis. Each type has different causes, different symptoms and different treatments.

The National Amyloidosis Centre (the NAC) at the Royal Free Hospital has been at the cutting edge of treatment and research into all aspects of amyloidosis for over 25 years and is responsible for the UK national caseload of amyloidosis.

The consultants at the NAC follow all patients regularly and maintain close contact with other physicians involved in their management to ensure that they receive the best and most effective treatments available.

Visit the UCL website for more information on the National Amyloidosis Centre and www.amyloidosis.org.uk for more information on amyloidosis.
